## Pricing

Pay per event

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

## Digikey Parts Scraper — Electronic Components, Prices & Stock

Extract the complete Digikey.com parts catalog with structured price breaks, real-time stock quantities, lead times, datasheets, parametric specs, RoHS/REACH/MSL compliance, lifecycle status, country of origin, and HTS tariff codes.

Three scraping modes: **browse by category**, **keyword search**, or **BOM part-number lookup** for bill-of-materials workflows.

Built for hardware startups, BOM management tools, procurement teams, EMS/OEM buyers, and tariff-cost calculators. First comprehensive Apify actor for Digikey.

---

### What You Get

Each record includes:

- **Part identifiers** — Digikey part number, manufacturer part number (MPN), manufacturer
- **Product info** — name, description, category/subcategory, family, series, packaging type
- **Live pricing** — price break tiers as `[{qty, price}, ...]` JSON for every quantity break shown on the page
- **Stock & availability** — current stock quantity, stock status (In Stock / Out of Stock / Back Order), lead time in weeks
- **Order info** — minimum order quantity, non-stock flag, currency
- **Compliance** — RoHS status, REACH status, MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level)
- **Traceability** — lifecycle status (Active / Obsolete / NRND / Last Time Buy), country of origin, US HTS tariff code
- **Assets** — datasheet PDF URL, product image URL, product page URL
- **Parametric specs** — full key/value spec table (e.g. Resistance, Power Rating, Tolerance) as JSON string (optional, toggle with `extractParametrics`)

---

### Input

| Field | Type | Description | Default |
|-------|------|-------------|---------|
| `mode` | select | `category`, `search`, or `bom` | `category` |
| `categoryUrl` | string | Category filter URL (e.g. `https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/resistors/52`) | — |
| `partNumbers` | array | Part numbers for BOM lookup mode | — |
| `query` | string | Keyword search query | — |
| `manufacturer` | string | Filter by manufacturer name | — |
| `inStockOnly` | boolean | Return only in-stock parts | `false` |
| `extractParametrics` | boolean | Extract parametric spec table (slower per record) | `true` |
| `maxItems` | integer | Maximum records to return | `100` |

---

### Modes

#### Category Browse

Scrapes all products from a Digikey category or filter URL, with automatic pagination.

```json
{
  "mode": "category",
  "categoryUrl": "https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/resistors/52",
  "inStockOnly": true,
  "maxItems": 500
}
````

#### Keyword Search

Searches the Digikey catalog by keyword, with optional manufacturer filter.

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "query": "STM32F103C8T6",
  "manufacturer": "STMicroelectronics",
  "maxItems": 50
}
```

#### BOM Part Number Lookup

Looks up a list of part numbers. Returns one record per part (matched by first search result). Ideal for bill-of-materials price/stock snapshots.

```json
{
  "mode": "bom",
  "partNumbers": [
    "RC0402FR-07100KL",
    "GRM155R61A105KE15D",
    "STM32F103C8T6"
  ],
  "extractParametrics": false
}
```

### Notes

- **Anti-bot**: Digikey uses Cloudflare managed challenge on product and search pages. This actor uses a residential proxy + CF bypass for reliable extraction. A CapSolver subscription and residential proxy entitlement are required — both handled automatically on paid plans.
- **Rate limiting**: Requests are spaced at ~1.5 seconds apart to respect Digikey's Akamai rate limits.
- **Parametric specs**: Enabling `extractParametrics: true` adds the full spec table per part. This is recommended for electronics datasheets and tariff-code workflows, but adds scraping time per record.
- **Price breaks**: Returned as a JSON string array for easy downstream parsing. Multi-quantity tier pricing is fully captured.
- **BOM mode**: One HTTP round-trip per part number. Efficient for price/stock snapshots across a bill of materials.

***

### Use Cases

- **Hardware procurement**: Monitor price/stock across Digikey for key BOM components
- **Tariff calculators**: Extract HTS codes + country of origin for component-level landed-cost models
- **BOM management tools**: Bulk price/stock lookup for 100s of part numbers
- **Electronics intelligence**: Track lifecycle status changes (Active → NRND → Obsolete) across the catalog
- **Market research**: Competitive part research — parametric specs + pricing for component selection
